Its been 14 weeks since the first operation and 1 week since the last, where they removed the wires and screws from my right foot.

My question is how much weight and how soon can I begin to put weight on my leg, ideally enough to not use the crouchers? I have a moon boot, do I need to wear this whenever I attempt to bear weight on it? Im fit and healthy, aged 30.
Thanking you in advance.

Even though they removed some of that hardware the bones are soft in the area where the screw and wires were. If I were you I would definately check with your doctor on this issue. Putting weight down on the foot too soon could cause more problems. I am surprised that he or she did not give you a time frame for this since this is very important. Whatever time frame they do end up giving you follow it and you should on the road to finally walking again. Best of luck.
